I use an identical product, but under the name String Swing. I’ve hung all sorts from them, including nitro cellulose finishes, never had an issue. If memory serves, the typical hangers in places like Guitar Guitar look like the same finish and they obviously have all sorts of exotica (as well as cheaper instruments) hanging off of them. https://www.amazon.com/String-Swing-CC01KOAK-Hardwood-Studio/dp/B0002GLCRC

If desperate, there’s always Halfords .

I almost had the Space Echo in my list. I tried one in a shop back in the ‘80s and was mightily impressed and, of course, Brian Setzer uses them and I’m a big fan of his. In fact, I must edit my guitar list.

It was my first thought, but the Zendrive into a clean Brunetti gets me very close to a Dumble.

Ooh, this is for me! Although, I’m a bit sad about the Dumble ODS as that was my first thought. However, I’ll make do. Guitars: Anderson Drop T with P90s; Gibson Eric Johnson ES335; Gretsch Brian Setzer signature 6120. Amps: Brunetti Mercury 50 with matching 2x12; Suhr Bella combo. FX: Strymon Flint; Strymon Big Sky; Strymon El Capistrano; Fuzz Face; ; Zendrive.

You're among many Basschat friends here. Tone beats chops everyday for me too, which explains a lot about some of my favourite guitarists: Eric Johnson, Robben Ford...

Yeah, I saw that in the photos, well done for making that abundantly clear both in the the above post and your photos; good on yer!

Cor, that’s a blast from my past. I remembered when they first came out and were advertised in Guitar magazine (the old one that was plain paper, including the covers), my guitar teacher always had a copy you could read whilst you waited for your lesson. GLWTS.

I know what you mean. I was a big Schaller strap lock fan, then I moved to Dunlop's and now I’m back with standard buttons and Grolsch rubber seals. However, I do have one guitar with a set of those rugby ball shaped buttons, they’re rather good. GLWTS.

Despite adding oily lemoness to my fretted instruments, I’m not not putting on my fretless as it, I’m reliably informed by shouty types who know better than wot like I does, causes fret sprout. I’m buggered if I’m going to start the guitar equivalent of weeding.

Pac Man ghosts have retrained as guitar picks following redundancy.

That looks proper classy. Nice one.

Glad it all went swimmingly.

I have been a George L’s fan for decades.

I do. Normally, it’s with that good old favourite, Lemon Oil. However, I have also used a small amount of wax on one particular guitar where Lemon Oil seemed to be stripping the stain (it wasn’t an expensive guitar). Did the trick, no harm done and no complaints from the luthier when it went in for a fret level.

Some sort of phase cancellation going on with the mixed position perhaps? Very Peter Green.

I’ve always liked the brief intro one of Crosby, Stills, Nash gave at Woodstock, “This is our first gig, we’re scared shïtless!”

What’s going on? Some folk have no rhythm. Watching people on things like Jools’ Later clapping out of time is good sport, they know that they’re wrong because of the occasional hesitance, like the person in that video. When I worked in a primary school, listening to the children clap along to tunes was like listening to a bucket of fish being tipped down a flight of stairs.

The appearance of a totally out of time knee and hand in the left of the shot about a minute in suddenly grabbed my attention. All the players tapping away together like good’uns and there’s someone who is plainly ‘dancing’ to the beat of a different drummer.

You’ll be fine as soon as you play the first note/chord/whatever.

If you like that, and haven’t already, check out Storyville’s A Piece Of Your Soul album. Here’s the title track...

One of those control pick type things, thin at one end, thicker at the other. Or just DIY one with a nail file or similar.

Den of Virtue. Hmm, sounds dull, but I’d give it a go.
